My life is ever approaching the empty nest time of life. Now, I spend my time spoiling grands, exploring making crafts, reading and my church. My blogposts will most likely be about these things in my life. Also book reviews and contests as love reading. Hope you will enjoy your visit and come again to see what is happening here.

Gave it to God and an answer to prayer!

Recently i was really struggling with something. It really had me down. I sought counsel, talked to pastor, talked to God and was still just so down. I tried to say I was giving it to God, but I really wasn't. I kept struggling and letting it overpower me.

Then hubby got a call about a possible job. He is unemployed and has been looking for a job to no avail. When he got the call about this one, I started praying God would give it to him. God said why could I ask Him to give Billy a job but yet I could not give Him this problem? He said why should He help Billy when I would not let Him help me. Boy this was hard but I gave the burden to God and less than an hour later I was posting on facebook that Billy got the job.

Now I am still hurt but I am leaving it with God. I have done what God and pastor asked me to do and now I am moving on and so is hubby to his new job. Praise to God for all, the lifted burden and the job!

From this little baby born on April 7, 1995 to the wonderful young man you have became April 7, 2011 Moma and Daddy were so blessed the day you were born and grow more blessed with each passing year. I pray God will richly bless you this year. Let Him be your guide and follow Him and do His will and you will be right where you need to be. We love you! God bless, Moma & Daddy

Saw this on a friends blog and had to share-Before you gripe about another petty something about your spouse or child-think how how you would feel if you woke up without them tomorrow. Man this hit me in the face and really made me really think! :( Then, I found this quote above about what if you woke up today with only what you thanked God for yesterday. Who or what would you still have? Would you have your spouse, your kids, your friends, your home, car, anything? Again, this really made me think and I ashamed to say I am not sure I like my answers to the above questions. I cannot change the past as none of us can but I am going to really work on changing my answers and my life. I know I need to really work on this but I am sharing it in the hope it might help others as well. God bless,Pat
